In your Konqueror 4, go to any web page.  Click on the "View" menu and go to 
"View Mode".  It will show that it's set to KHTML.  The option below it is 
WebKit.  If you click on a link, it will switch back to KHTML.  To change it 
permanently, change the file association for html files, the embedded part.
